How we handle bath repair in Stock

We’ve repaired just about every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. Whether it’s rust spots around the plughole and chips caused by builders, we can normally put it right, on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. Once it has cured, typically by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

Common problems we fix in Stock

Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, often before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Snagging damage from a refit

  • Who turns up on the day

  • How to look after the finish

Choosing a repair company

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Acrylic
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Cast iron enamel

Repair or replace in Stock?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No need to remove anything

See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Stock. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your BS40 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
